Hello all,
After going back and forth with many camera brands,I decided to give the a7 another chance and I brought the sony a7, sony 24-70f4 and the sony hvl-60 flash. unfortunately the features I like about the camera are the features I don't like...
1) face detection is one feature which I love... when I hand over the camera to someone to take my pic, I know that the face detect will always have me in focus... but that's not always the case.. out of 10 pics, 3 of them always seems to be soft or blurry.
2) auto focus hunts or sometimes locks up without actually being in focus..
3) the rear lcd doesn't seem to have the bite!! Colours look to washed out and is not sharp ...
4) high iso files are not too clean when shooting RAW. Using 5d mkIII, d600 etc in the past... the a7 sensor is noisy.
5) ideally I would like the EVF to display and the screen to only come on to preview pics.. but there is no option of such kind..
6) the pic preview zoom button just zooms 100% directly. There should be an option which could help users to choose between different zoom percent...
all in all it's a good travel camera. But there is still something confusing about The setup. Results are not consistent and I am not sure of its the lens or the camera itself..
